“Wearied with traversing in vain the wide circle of human expedients; coming to the end of all your own wisdom, strength, and resources; your uneasy, jaded spirit is brought into this resting posture of waiting on, and waiting for, the Lord; and thus folds its drooping wings upon the very bosom of God.”  Octavius Winslow  (1808-1878)

“A God whose will is resisted, whose designs are frustrated, whose purpose is checkmated, possesses no title to Deity, and so far from being a fit object of worship, merits nought but contempt.” Arthur W. Pink  (1886-1952)

“This sovereign bliss, which is reserved for us in heaven, is so highly raised above nature, that neither acuteness of sense, nor vivacity of reason, nor even the light of the law, could discover it to us, much less give us the hope of it.”  John Daille  (1594-1670)

“O for a better heart!  O for a heart to love God more; to hate sin more; to walk more evenly with God.  Lord!  Deny not to me such a heart, whatever thou deny me: give me a heart to fear thee, to love and delight in thee.”  John Flavel (1628-1691)

No one with proper ideas of God believes that He has to change His mind every few days to make room for unexpeted happenings which were not included in His original plan.  If the perfection of the divine plan be denied, no consistent stopping place will be found short of atheism.  Loraine Boettner  (1901-1990)

“Good thoughts of God will fortify us against many of Satan’s temptations.”  Matthew Henry (1662-1714)

“God will be acknowledged, that is, consulted with, in all our undertakings and conflicts, or else we shall miscarry.”  Thomas Manton  (1620-1677)

“He (Satan) is studying our tempers and characters all the day long.  We know little of ourselves;–he knows us perfectly.  He sees the weak point—the fitting time—and accordingly he lays the snare.”  Henry Law  (1797-1884)

The greatest honor to which any man can attain on earth is to be a servant of Jesus Christ.  (William S. Plumer; 1802-1880)

“Whatever is in harmony with the moral character of God is right, and whatever is in conflict with it is wrong.”  James Madison Pendleton  (1811-1891)
